This bellhousing should fit a toploader 4 speed and the lightweight 3 speeds from the era (1966).

Answer 2

I like this swap! It's something I've been wanting to do for a long time, I believe you can use any 3 or 4 speed from a V8, but then you have to change the driveline to match, those early no syncro 1st were weak trannys

They changed the trannys in 67 to a full syncro like the v8s, thus the larger bell housing.

I'll have to check some decoders for the exact,

all of them have their flaws. Ford went to overhead cam vehicles and chevy nevertheless has pushrod vehicles and that i think of is the only motor corporation that keeps to be using a pushrod motor. Overhead cam vehicles have much less friction by way of three much less shifting aspects than a push rod vehicles liberating up some horse ability. however the old chevy push rod vehicles nevertheless carry their very own. i think of all the hot physique kinds are stupid Ford and Chevy. they are of course no longer designed the get good air bypass down the line. they are extra equivalent to sq. containers. i think of the main suitable ford layout became the ninety 8 physique form it became maximum airodynamic. i like the 88-ninety 8 chevy physique form and the subsequent form after that . Im not sure while the subsequent form ended nevertheless. circumvent and Toyota have the main suitable looking bodies on the line splendid now. in case you prefer a genuine truck at the instant you extra appropriate purely bypass with a Tundra
